Gov. Cuomo will be president.

Clearly Cuomo has made the calculation that he will take over in the ruins left by Trump in 2024, Its the pattern America has been following. 8 Years of Republicans destroying the economy followed by 8 years of repair by Democrats.

I like Cuomo's personality, and competence level WAY better than Rump, but he is politically only a little better.

It would help America, but we need major fundamental changes that the more progressive wing might bring. I am also starting to believe we would do better to start some statewide confederations of the more successful states (blue) so that we can cooperate like the United States was intended to operate while making the fed and vote of the smaller less economically successful states less relevant.

It might start small, maybe grow out of the New York, New Jersey, Michigan, and Illinois alliance that is forming to assist each other with Covid. Likely it would include smaller New England states as well. Later California, Washington and Oregon could join together.

Naturally, eventually the Great Lakes states could join up with the New England alliance.


We could rid ourselves of the backward poverty stricken states of the South and West, without them we would soar.

I would hope this could happen peacefully as a natural transition of allowing alike minded people to band together, but the damage to the poor, uneducated states might force them to fight to keep us obliged to help them.

Florida and Georgia, Texas, North Carolina and Virginia might come along eventually, but I think the rest of the states, for the most part, might prefer to wallow in their own misery. We could offer aid to places like South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi and asylum for the women and minorities.

Are you conceding that Biden can't win?

Also, we will go to war to keep you from leaving just like Lincoln did. You are not allowed to secede. Sorry

I'll be honest, this one goes right over my head. I get why someone from Southie in Boston wouldn't make it. And I get that many New Yorkers are a*holes and some locals definitely have an accent but I'm not making the connection with a vowel in their last name. I'm not saying you're wrong but I've never heard that before.

A politician from New York with a vowel at the end of his name is a backdoor way of saying Cuomo is of Italian descent, therefore his is connected.

Nobody connected will be elected.

I think it is bullshit, but it plays.

Southies and Italians from New York are always considered to be mobbed up.

Why his father abandoned his run for the Presidency, and it is also part of the reason why Rudi didn't get anywhere, it ain't happening, perhaps if they were from another area, but not if they are from New York

We would kick your ass in such a war, because we have the money. Fight to keep us, you will lose badly.
 
I wasn't the biggest fan of Cuomo however his favorability rating with me went up a couple of notches in the past few weeks as he has demonstrated leadership that IMO I thought was excellent. I know public ratings of him have risen substantially.

I grew up in Putnam Lake, NY when it was about 40% Italian.

No mobsters, but lots of Republicans.

The South is just dumb.
